The holidays are very much a time to spend with old friends.

BBC OTR from 1953-1959. As narrated by producer LESLIE BRIDGMONT: "The series nearly came unstuck right at the beginning, for it was tailor-made for David Tomlinson, in the role of Bliss.

We were in a dilemma, for the programme was obviously a success. Either it had...
